This attractive period house of brick construction under a slate roof has had more modern flat roof extension to the rear. It has recently been used as bedsits for staff accommodation and the property now requires refurbishment providing the opportunity to recreate a wonderful family home. Period features remain including the sash windows and the marble fireplace in the drawing room. There are sea glimpses from the first floor and a low maintenance garden to the rear, as well as parking for at least 2 cars to the front. There are well presented self contained offices attached to the house which, subject to planning consent could form an addition to the house or could provide useful income.

Seaview is a unique and elite sailing village on the North East of the Island with on of its focal points being Sea View yacht Club and a blend of pebbled, rocky and long stretches of sandy beaches. There are a few essential shops e.g. grocery, chemist, newsagent/post office – plus specialists in yachting gear, bars and restaurants – including the Seaview Hotel (within the High Street) and The Priory Bay Hotel – an idyllic setting within walking distance of the long stretch of sandy bays.

Just a 7 minute drive to Ryde town and its passenger ferry links, and a short drive to Fishbourne-Portsmouth car ferry terminal – Seaview is ideally suited for those seeking a permanent or second home.
